Federal Communications Commission member Robert McDowell said late Monday he will not vote on BellSouth's $80 billion merger with AT&T, putting in question the completion of the deal or at least delaying the outcome. Republican McDowell's decision is expected to prolong a 2-2 commission stalemate that has prevented the merger from winning final regulatory approval. The decision may embarrass FCC Chairman Kevin Martin, who went to extreme public means to make it easier for McDowell to unrecuse himself.
